Did you know that over 65 percent of Fortune 500 companies offer employee matching gift programs? Does your company? As a community conscious corporation, creating or expanding an employee matching gift program is one of the most effective ways for a company to allocate its corporate philanthropy dollars
The Miracle League of Miami Dade is an eligible 501(c)(3) charitable organization that can easily be integrated into a corporation’s matching gifts program. Simply make a donation to the Miracle League and then submit a request through your company’s administrative office to process a matching gift. It is that easy to double your donation and help build a miracle for our children.
Through funding by donors and the addition of corporate gift matching, the Miracle League is working to reach our funding goal of $1.5 million to build our Miracle League of Miami Dade Park. This facility will provide a safe playing surface that accommodates wheelchairs and other assistive devices. It will also include handicap accessible dugouts, stands for families, lighting, handicap parking, accessible restroom facilities, a concession area and an ADA compliant boundless playground designed for disability access and safety.
